Nature is nasty :)

TracyMartin said 2230 days ago:

It sure is. A horny tomato with a small wee-wee. :-)

agi said 2230 days ago:

Genetic mutant! Great take on the theme. The grain takes away from the photo but really fun.

pursang said 2230 days ago:

High marks from me. This reminds me of the 'Ooh Ohh Bird' story. A small bird with very large *ahem* yells 'Ooh Ooh' every time he lands.

Great take on the theme. Where in the world did you find this thing anyway? Or do you grow them for special occasions? ;-)

TracyMartin said 2230 days ago:

Agi - This is a scan and unfortunately not a very good one, but I thought it fit the theme well.

pursang - There was one summer that the majority of the tomatoes I grew looked like this, I have no idea why and it has only happened sporadically since. I have a couple of much better images but can't seem to locate them at the moment. ;)

I see Tom and Dick. Where's Harry?

gorin-images said 2230 days ago:

Well......

The image quality is poor, having a lot of evident color noise, especially in the shadow areas, and the background, which looks like it is supposed to be white, came out gray.

However, there is no question that this tomatoe appears to have something on it that looks very much like the "male sex organ" ;) So I am giving you high marks for relevance and impact. I also like the overall composition, although I think it would be even stronger if there was more white space (or in this case gray space) at the top of the image. This would make it read more vertical/linear, which is a major characteristic of all things phallic.

Just a little fella isn't he! :D Nice contribution.

Great colours and I especially like the noise.

Ana said 2230 days ago:

takes all kinds.

pursang said 2230 days ago:

Tracy, perhaps during that particular growing season your garden was very happy to see you...

Based on your Self Portraits, I can't say as I blame them!

Funny fruits and vegetables, always a favourite ;)

Hummingbird said 2226 days ago:

This tomato didn't actually grow this way did it?

Hummingbird said 2226 days ago:

Wow, now I'm especially glad I gave this high marks.

TracyMartin said 2226 days ago:

Thanks Hummingbird, you bumped up my scores but they still won't fix the quality. I haven't had any of these in recent years since I got my digital but yes they grow like that. :-)
